High Dive
High Dive Red Blend 2015
USA, Napa Valley
Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot
Description
Dark berries and black cherry aromatics lead to a dense core of cassis. Field ripe strawberries, crushed blackberries and brooding blue tones encapsulate powerful textural highlights. Fantastic density and weight, with an expanding mid-palate that turns to purity and uplift in finishing.
